Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1858
As soon as the words "hide and seek" came to her ears, Lin Sanjiu shuddered—she didn't like the scene that popped up in her mind very much: she held her breath and hid in a place she thought was safe, but she was gently touched behind her shoulders A huge snow-white finger.

Why is it such an annoying content?

She obviously didn't go into the courtyard... Could it be that the small dungeon was activated when she touched the river in front of the "play item"?

Lin Sanjiu quickly glanced at the river under the bridge.

But for a moment, when she turned her eyes back, the tip of her nose was touching the nose of the child statue.

She stared at the nose that was as big as her palm, and after half a second, she felt a fluffy cold sweat slowly break out on her back.

There is not even a breath of wind when the statue is so big... She just rolled her eyes a little, and the child statue crossed the courtyard and onto the stone bridge.

With its smile, the gypsum cheeks are gradually bulging, getting higher and higher, and they are about to touch Lin Sanjiu's two shoulders.

"You look worried," the child statue said with a shrill laugh, "don't be afraid, don't be afraid... this game is not scary at all, if we say we are worried, we should be worried Woolen cloth."

Being so close to it, Lin Sanjiu was unwilling to even open his mouth.

She squeezed out a sentence between her teeth: "Can you stand back?"

The child statue is not angry.

Neither the eyes nor the brain had time to respond, so it returned to its original posture and straightened up—Lin Sanjiu didn't even realize when the "straightening up" happened.

The child statue maintained a smile and slowly moved back a few meters.There was no movement, no tremors from the bridge deck.

If she closed her eyes, she might not even feel that there was a giant statue in front of her.

It also means that when these giant statues move, they are far faster and silent than Lin Sanjiu himself.

"Why...why are you worried?"

From the frozen lips of the plaster statue, came the excited voice of the little boy. "Because we are the ones who want to hide."

Lin Sanjiu was startled, and from the gap beside the bridge, he looked at several giant snow-white statues in the courtyard for a while. "Let me... come to you?"

Not to mention searching, even if she didn't want to look, given the size of this group of statues, it was impossible for her to lose sight of them.

"That's right," the child statue became excited, "We are hiding in this courtyard, and you will find us. Of course, this hide-and-seek may be different from the usual hide-and-seek played by children, so let me tell you about it. Come, enter the garden."

Just as Lin Sanjiu took a step, he suddenly remembered the fingers that stretched down from the sky to crush people during the love of God, and quickly turned to tell his instructor, "Don't go in, stand on the other side of the bridge. If I Calling you, come again."

The instructor clenched his fists and cheered her up like a cartoon character: "Don't panic, you have to believe in yourself and have self-confidence to stimulate your potential!"

If this kind of empty chicken soup comes out of a person's mouth, it is tantamount to nonsense; but if it comes out of the mouth of a special item, it seems to have an effect. A little more steady.

There are a total of five plaster statues of different sizes, almost like five buildings, surrounding her in the middle.

The tallest statue of a man with a thick beard is at least six or seven stories high. If he hadn't seen it from a distance just now, from Lin Sanjiu's angle at this time, even if he looked up and broke his neck, he wouldn't be able to see what he looked like.The statue of a man with a thick beard is holding a spear. It is also the only statue whose lower body is a fish. The tail of the fish hooks into the air, and the smallest part is enough for adults to slide side by side.

The smallest is the statue of a child, only the size of a locomotive.It tilted its head, as if it was always listening to the voices of humans and birds; whenever it spoke, it liked to get close to Lin Sanjiu, with those white, empty eyes turned to the sky.

In this game of hide and seek, you will always be the 'ghost', that is, the one looking for someone. "The child statue said with a smile, "Because we all want to hide, and hiding is the most fun!" "

"How is that different from ordinary hide-and-seek?" Lin Sanjiu asked with a tense voice.

"Because this game adds a great advantage to you," said the Child Statue. "Like ordinary hide-and-seek, you also count from one to ten to give us time to hide. However, whenever you count an even number , you can open your eyes and see... When you count to an odd number, you must close it. In this way, are you still afraid that you will not be able to find your target?"

If there is any experience Lin Sanjiu has gained through dungeons over the years, it must be this one: the more he favors his own advantages on the surface, the more he cannot take it lightly.

"Anything else?" she asked.

"Of course, that's just the first difference. The second difference is that every time you look for someone as a 'ghost', there is only one target, and the target will be randomly changed." The child statue said with a smile, " Have you seen this curly-haired big brother?"

Lin Sanjiu took two steps back, raised his head vigorously, and managed to see that the curly-haired man statue on the left was the second largest statue after the thick-bearded man statue.

This dungeon is quite reasonable in terms of useless details: the male in the prime of life is the largest, followed by the young male; carrying the flower basket, it is similar in size to the two female statues holding the kettle, and both are a circle smaller than the curly-haired male statue.

"Let's say the first round of hide and seek is for this curly-haired brother. Then you have to find him, and only him. We all hide, but if you mistake someone else for this curly-haired brother , then you lose and you will be punished.”

"...What punishment?"

The statue of the child still has a half-upright posture, like any ordinary statue, it is a dead thing at first glance; it feels almost as if someone is hiding among these statues and playing a recording.

"Every time you find a wrong person, 5% of your physical strength will be deducted." It said happily, "Is the punishment not heavy? It's reasonable, right? Don't think you can only lose twenty times, after all, you can lose at the same time." Get back your strength as much as possible."

"What if all my physical strength is drained?" Lin Sanjiu asked.

The child statue was happy, and laughed a few times shyly, as if someone was about to give him a big prize just now, but he didn't answer a word in detail.

Lin Sanjiu understood.When her stamina is depleted, it doesn't matter whether she knows what's going to happen next.

"If I find the right target, I can go?"

There was silence for a few seconds on the face of the child statue tilted towards the sky.

"No...it's not. Finding the target in hide-and-seek can only ensure that your physical strength will not be deducted." It said as if singing, "You have found the correct target, then we will start the next game .We have been waiting for so many years, how can we let you play a few rounds and leave."

　Today is the 17th, so far this month I have only missed three days of updates (two of them were mixed up with the dates, and I forgot to post them), but even the backstage at the starting point didn’t believe that I only missed three days of updates. One line: update 11 days this month.

Because of this bullshit, I spent at least 5 minutes counting, and the mystery of why 17-3 equals 11 is still unsolved.
